WINE-a mix of delicious food-general Linux technology-Linux technology and application information, the following is a detailed description. Most of the first LINUX users switched from WINDOWS.
New users who are used to WINDOWS generally suffer from the use of LINUX software. Especially in WINDOWS, many manufacturers do not produce LINUX software, such as QQ.
If you are a newbie, the WINE software will definitely help you make a smooth transformation.
What is WINE? (Ubuntu environment)
In short, WINE is a "plug-in" that simulates WINDOWS application interface (API) on LINUX. It allows users to directly run WINDOWS-based programs in LINUX. Unlike virtual machines, WINE does not provide hardware interfaces and does not provide a complete hardware platform as it does. Therefore, WINE does not eat memory as it does in VMS. Of course, the compatibility problem is worse than that of VMS.
Install
1. Install wine from the source (version 0.9.59 currently)
Enter sudo apt-get install wine on the terminal
WINE is the main program, and the version in the source is old. If you are pursuing a new version (1.1), you can download it separately. I have heard that the compatibility will be improved, but I tried it and I have not found any difference with 0.9.59.
2. Install the support for CAB and RAR decompression (as required below)
Enter sudo apt-get install cabextract rar unrar on the terminal
3. So far, You can directly run the EXE binary file.
Enter wine in the terminal (file location)
It can be run, but it is not necessarily completely compatible. In general, garbled characters will occur without patching. For example, you cannot enter Chinese characters on QQ, and you cannot understand the received text.
4. Modify the Registry
Enter regedit on the terminal
In the displayed window, modify [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ WindowsNT \ CurrentVersion \ FontSubstitutes].
Close the window. After that, it should be okay to modify the Chinese font of the WINE program.
5. If you don't have any more, enjoy the flavor of WINE.
Remarks
1. Because the system configurations on each server are different, if you cannot implement the functions as described above, you should start with your own system configurations.
2. The wine exe program runs on a simulation layer, so it is not compatible with running on WINDOWS platform. Occasionally sticky.
3. Does the software use the green version or the installation version? This can only be considered by yourself. The most important thing is whether the dynamic link library DLL provided by the software is complete.
